The La Trobe University Visual Arts Centre is the focus for the University's cultural mission in Bendigo, showcasing contemporary art practice and providing a focus for discussion relevant to current ideas and practice.
The award winning building features a thirteen metre-wide glass facade which acts as a public exhibition space. This space forms part of the VAC's annual exhibition program.
In 2011 La Trobe University, in partnership with the City of Greater Bendigo, launched The Facade Project, a national competition inviting artists to submit proposals for a work to be exhibited on the facade of the VAC for 12 months.
